It Must Be Spring

Sunshine and warm weather are finally starting to make cameos on the weather reports again — it must be Spring! Well, ok, not until tomorrow, but we can still be be happy.

And what better way to celebrate the launch of spring than by checking out the sexy rock ‘n’ roll musical Spring Awakening, which our neighbour down the street previewed this week?

Tonight is also Buddies in Bad Times Theatre’s marquee fundraising event, a one-night-only performance of Canadian theatre icon and queer artist Daniel MacIvor’s Cul-de-Sac. Not only will you be entertained, but your ticket will help support the future of queer theatre.

On a more fun and frivolous note, why not celebrate the official start of spring by taking part in Newmindspace’s annual pillow fight tomorrow in Yonge-Dundas square?
